Bug 360191 – Please stabilize and/or bump sys-auth/pam_ssh_agent_auth

• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description David Butler 2011-03-23 20:39:38 UTC]

I have used and tested it on multiple x86 platforms.

[Comment 1 David Butler 2011-03-23 20:59:43 UTC]

It does have this:
 * QA Notice: Package has poor programming practices which may compile
 *            fine but exhibit random runtime failures.
 * bindresvport.c:71: warning: dereferencing pointer 'sa' does break strict-aliasing rules

but runs fine

I created an upstream bug, but this package still works... https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3238605&group_id=249556&atid=1126337

Thanks for reporting your successful test results, assigning to PAM team

I found this package in my local overlay and I had following instructions in pkg_postins():

-       elog "Simple steps to make this work (with sudo):"
-       elog "1. emerge sudo[pam] and update /etc/pam.d/sudo to contain only:"
-       elog "auth       sufficient pam_ssh_agent_auth.so file=/etc/security/authorized_keys"
-       elog "account    include              system-auth"
-       elog "2. Update sudo config to contain:"
-       elog 'Defaults    env_keep += "SSH_AUTH_SOCK"'
-       elog "3. Put required keys into /etc/security/authorized_keys and try it out!"

I'm not sure if pam maintainers want to add it to ebuild, but this may help arch testers :)

I was hoping that they would ship drop in file for /sudoers.d/ 

Also, there is a 0.9.2 release now, we should consider bumping it includes a fix for the QA notice issue...

0.9.4 was bumped time ago, please open separate bugs for bumps or the concrete version do you want to get stabilized
